Slashdot is Moving. Help Load Test!

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the please-wear-a-hardhat dept.

We're moving the Slashdot cluster from Exodus East to Exodus West in the next couple days. In good Slashdot Tradition, we've opened up brak.slashdot.org for you to help load test the new cluster. Currently its almost an exact copy of our existing setup (missing a couple of webheads which will be up soon). The actual move will occur late at night (most likely tonight or tomorrow depending on how things go), and will hopefully involve only a few minutes of downtime as we copy the last of the data over the continent. Thanks for your help.

    Somehow I'm guessing this shouldn't be at the top of my page:

    You have 30 Moderator Points! Use 'em or lose 'em!

    Sweet! When I go to the new server, it tells me I have 30 Mod points. I only have three left on this server. Might that be an error, or is that intentional so we can test the moderation system on the new server?
